Devana

It’s been a long time since I’ve posted an outfit for the kemono, and even longer since I’ve posted one that only fits the default body, which I hardly ever wear.

Eleran’s Crafts is celebrating ten years in SL with a room full of FREE outfits, for guys, girls, and kemonos 🙂  This armor caught my eye just for the absolutely fantastic detailing.  This is the best copper I’ve ever seen in SL

There are a ton of pieces to this outfit, and I won’t detail them all.  All of the attachments are modify though, so you can resize them to fit (I only had to resize the belt for this).  The top, pants, and suspenders are kemono specific.

You should definitely pay a visit if fantasy is your thing.  There lots of outfits to chose from, and you’re sure to find something you like!


Prey

This cute mouse is available at the Kustom 9 event, and is a purrfect fit for any neko or feline 🙂

The mouse comes in a number of colors, and it has a HUD to let you control the two animations (yes, it’s animesh) and three poses.  For L$99 per color, I just couldn’t resist!

Also, since my last photos of the cheetah, I have a new bento tail!  This one is from Catseye, and it’s really quite well done.  The pack includes three tail… widths, I suppose you’d call them – thin, medium (shown), and thick.  Each width has two versions, one in the normal position, and one at a lower position.  These are rigged mesh, so you can’t move them, so checking with the demo version is a must!

There are a number of sitting, walking, and running animations included in both the tail and an AO.  The HUD to control the AO also lets you set the tail length to extra long, long, medium, or short.

The HUD, while it does the job, could be better.  In particular it would be nice if it gave you access to all of the animations while sitting.  However, if you’re a scripter, is should be straightforward to do a custom HUD to overcome this small issue, as it’s using the ZHAO script package and the scripts are full perm.

Lastly, there is a texture HUD included that allows you to texture and tint the tail.  The tail is broken up into four parts, making it easy to get something like a cheetah tail right out of the box.  But if the texture HUD won’t get you to your desired fur markings, the kit also includes the UV map so you can make your own texture.  And there’s an applier included that you can load your custom texture with (it’s even full perm so you can sell you texture customization easily).

All this for L$299.  Another superb product from Catty over at Catseye!

Arrhhh pirates!

Another costume for another event at Eden, this time pirates!  Tomorrow we will have a competition for best dressed as a pirate, and my old human pirate outfit is very old, so old I have to wear it on system.  So I thought it would be fun to see if I could dress up as a furry pirate, and yaaa, I did it!

Both the corset and shirt, which are one piece, and the skirt are from Purr&Chase (clever name).  Most of their items are sold individually, so please be careful and make sure you are getting the right thing from mp.

The corset and top also have a naughty mode where you (or anyone you grant access too) can pull down the top by clicking on it.  Both items have a universal color HUD, that also lets you control alpha and glow.

Just as well I could control alpha too, as the belt of the skirt clipped the bottom of the corset, so I alpha-ed the belt and the belt rings.

The pirate tricorn I already had, and before you say it, which pirate captain wouldn’t want one of the best blades ever made by her side?

Cat’s in flowers

In an upcoming event at Eden, we have a Best in Florals competition.  While I was browsing for an outfit for this Saturday’s event, I came across this dress for kemono.  I’ve bought an outfit from this creator before, and while it was nice, I was a little underwhelmed with it, so much so, I didn’t photograph it.  So I approached this one with caution (as the creator offers no demos).

However, this worked out really nicely!  For your L$50, you get four versions of the dress, all sized for kemono with the fitted torso.  The difference is the use or lack of materials.  I’m wearing the one with full materials enabled (which is very subtle in a photograph), and it looks excellent.  My only niggle with this dress is it’s a tiny bit loose below the arms, but it’s hardly a drastic problem at L$50.

Overall, I’m quite happy with this dress, and will certainly wear it to the event!

 

 


Wretch Lingerie

If you have kemono, you’re probably well aware of this lingerie set from Wretch.  But shhhh, it’s on sale for only L$50 for an unspecified time at Neko City!  Run now if you don’t already have it!

There are sizes to fit the Fitted Torso Busty (shown), Fitted Torso Petite, default kemono, ABC, and Rei.

The HUD is pretty amazing.  You can color the body, straps, bow, frill, and ties at the back all separately.  The first page of the HUD has a number of presets (like black, white, pink, peach), but you can use a universal color picker to tint them to your liking, or even load your own custom textures into the HUD (yes, a dev kit is included!)

If that’s not enough, you can switch the body material to a number of difference lace patterns, and control the lace transparency.  This, like a lot of kemono clothing, is a very customizable outfit.  And at L$50 on special, it’s an absolute bargain!

Catsuit cat

Cats in catsuits?!  I got this catsuit for the kemono bod from marketplace with a specific reason in mind, which you’ll see if you keep scrolling!

The suit comes in sizes for default, Rei, and Busty Torso, and a set of full perm textures is included.  Also included is a texture HUD that lets you colorize any of the five faces on the suit.  As it is, it’s pretty nice, and could be used in a number of scenarios without any mods, including in an SF styled sim for example.  The normal and specular textures are really well done.

And here we have why I wanted it.  Recently I’ve been playing some capture roleplay in a jungle, and do you think camouflage might help some?  I’m betting it will!  This photo was taken with just a local texture to get an idea how it would look.  I’ll do a custom texture with more careful edge matching for the camo when I get a little spare time.  As it is, even without edge matching, it looks pretty good!

 


Winter Kemono

I’ve had my eye on this outfit from Starbright for a while, and with Autumn half over, I thought it was time to buy it 🙂  Please note however, this is only for kemono with Starbright’s kemono torso mod.  It won’t fit anything else.

This is a very versatile outfit!  It consists of the coat, top, shorts, and boots.  There are versions of everything for both the petite and busty torso versions.  It also comes with a multi-texture HUD to change the highlight color, the coat color, and the black of the shorts and boots to white.  However, with most things kemono, there is a full modding kit available via the HUD if you want to make custom textures for it.

Worth pointing out is that all the pockets on the shorts are mesh detail, not just texturing, which is really wonderful.

If you touch the top, you’re presented with a menu that allows you to do a whole bunch of things, including take off pieces of clothing or put them back on.  The menu will let your partner  (or anyone else, if you’re that way inclined) interact with the clothing too.  There’s a configuration notecard in each piece allowing for white and blacklisting, and of course you can lock everything so only your whitelist can get the menu.

The leggings are part of the boots, which come with both animal and human versions.  As this is all mod, you could make the leggings transparent if you wanted to wear the boots without them for some reason.

For L$350, this is a really well done outfit from Starbright!

Venus with Kemono

Weeks ago I told you I’d show you the Venus head for the Kemono body, and I’ve finally got around to it.  I got the Venus head ages ago for an anime event, and I just wore it with Lara, which works fine.  But it’s really designed to go with the default Kemono body.  This combination gives you a very young girl look, which you need to be mindful of on adult sims.

All the clothes here are L$10 or less each and are fitmesh for the Kemono default body (the skirt also includes sizes for Lara, Belleza, and Hourglass).  The shoes are only in animal feet size.

I was really surprised at how well one of my favorite mesh hairstyles worked with both the Kemono and Venus heads.  You just have to tweak the head size of your shape a bit to get it to fit!


Kemono freebies

Of course, with a new avi, I’ve been running around finding some freebies!

Also, as someone asked me at the event about the busty version I showed you the other day, I thought I’d show you the Kemono as it comes without the busty mod.

The panties are a group gift from Kiu.  Their group is free to join, and there are at least two other group gifts in-store at the time of writing.

And the inverted cross pasties (sorry Aeon, I know you hate pasties) are available on the marketplace for L$0.  They come with an eight color HUD, but as with most things Kemono related they are mod and the creator includes a UV map, so if you want to do a custom texture, it’s dead easy.

Also, this is another one of the default skins that come with the Kemono.  I will show you what you can do with a human skin and the Venus head in another post 🙂


Laced up

I finally splurged on a Kemono 🙂  I wanted it for a specific look for an event, but I bet I have a lot of fun modifying it, as there are a ton of things out there for it.

This is the basic look out of the box, with the addition of a busy mod and the laced up bodysuit.  You know I’m a sucker for corset lacing 🙂

The HUD for the M3 head is pretty awesome.  The expressions alone are totally worth the price of the entire avatar!  And as I mentioned, there are a bunch of mods out there, but the creator also makes things like a reference mesh and UVs and such all available for free from their website, so others can build for it.  Doing it this way (as opposed to licensing specific creators) certainly makes it easy for modders.

I added a busty mod immediately as the standard Kemono avi is far too small-chested.  This mod is very cool, and replaces the entire avi’s torso, and reacts to the shape sliders much better than the standard Kemono avi.

I’m guessing this will not be the only post you see from me in this form 🙂
